Milwaukee Nitrus 9 in. Carbide Reciprocating Saw Blade, 5 TPI is engineered for serious metal-cutting challenges where durability and speed make the difference. Built with carbide teeth and part of Milwaukee’s trusted Nitrus line, this blade stays sharper longer and cuts through tough materials with less downtime for blade changes.
Key features that set this blade apart:
-
Carbide teeth: durable and resistant to wear when cutting through hard metals, nails, and other embedded materials.
-
5 teeth per inch (TPI): delivers fast, aggressive cuts for efficient metal demolition and fabrication work.
-
0.05 inch blade thickness: optimized for a balance of rigidity and chip clearance, reducing binding and resistance.
-
9 inch length: provides deep cuts and extended reach in tight demolition or remodeling jobs.
-
1 inch width: a robust profile that handles tough cuts while maintaining control.
-
Carded packaging, 1 blade per package: ready to grab-and-go for shop or job-site use.
-
Distinctive black/red Milwaukee styling: part of the Nitrus family, signaling a blade built for durability and performance.
What this blade excels at
- Cutting through metal materials like pipe, conduit, angle iron, and similar structural components with accuracy and speed.
- Demolition tasks where a tough, long-lasting blade minimizes downtime and blade swaps.
- Working in tight spaces where a 9-inch blade with a stout profile can reach and bite without excessive wobble.
Why choose Milwaukee Nitrus carbide blades over standard steel blades — when you face hard metals, saw blades with carbide tips resist dulling far longer, maintaining cutting efficiency and minimizing downtime. This translates to faster projects, fewer blade changes, and more precise cuts in demanding environments.
Pro tips for best results
- Let the blade do the work—apply steady, moderate pressure and avoid forcing the cut.
- Keep the workpiece stable and supported to reduce blade binding and maximize life.
- Ensure proper personal protective equipment is worn, including eye protection and gloves.
Whether you’re tackling metal fabrication, HVAC installation, or tough demolition tasks, the Milwaukee Nitrus 9 in. Carbide Reciprocating Saw Blade (5 TPI) delivers durability, aggressive cutting performance, and long-lasting sharpness when the situation demands it.
